ugrakarma.9416 Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 Quote "Tier 3 upgrades for jade bot modules can now be purchased from Myung-Hee in Seitung Province and Zazzl in Arborstone." This change what? is new modules tier for purchase? Quote "The elite specialization collection item earned from completing the End of Dragons story can now be earned from completing the Dragon's End meta-event or purchased from vendors in Dragon's End if you have finished the story with another character. The text will be adjusted to reflect this change in a separate update." This is so great, that i can just believe. Quote "Recipes for lower-level potions of slaying have been adjusted. Weak recipes produce 1 potion, minor recipes produce 2, powerful recipes still produce 10, and all other recipes produce 3." This is a nerf? 😨 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Witch of Doom.5739 Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 The potion thing does appear to be a nerf. Didn't even the minor ones give 5 per recipe? They nerf and nerf the things we can craft and salvage for Research Notes -- it's almost like they don't want us to have them. Am getting fed up. 12 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The EoD version of the Springer is acquired by basically just talking to a renown heart NPC, before doing that heart (which the Wiki has still wrong).

Sarajiel.5830 Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 I was actually quite surprised how easy it was to get the mounts on my EoD-only account. It will probably take a bit, but for new players who either have EoD-only or HoT/PoF/EoD, it will be much nicer story-wise and generally easier to unlock the glider and mounts in the future.

Anet doesn't maintain the wiki, we do. I've made a couple of updates myself, it really isn't that difficult, and might help your fellow GW2 players out a lot. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorem.8104 Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 Are they going to give us a sticky thread to discuss? Anyway... "Added a pair of diving goggles and a diving achievement in Arborstone." always wondered why new added features are listed under bug fixes. Just like this MASSIVE nerf to wvw rewards: Fixed a bug with jade bot scavenger protocols. Scavenger protocols will no longer work when killing players." Because wvw can't have nice things. And calling it a bug, hah. Warrior nerfs, typical. Although again all those nerfs, sheesh the balancing team is terrible. Release EoD with an incredibly bad patch that needs to be reverted, and then again another bad balancing patch. Scrapper is basically being removed from the game at this point, lost its ability to be a bruiser and now lost the thing Anet gave them in the first place before EoD so they would actually be useful. But hey, at least they buffed the worst meta in the game rewards again and nerfed the meta again. And of let us skip the story item for E-specs, just needs a whole lotta DE. Because we want to be there... lol 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milkbone.9478 Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 I've been very disappointed with anets showing with this expansion, they "teased" this balance patch last week, but really nothing of major PvE substance was changed aside from that already "teased" ele adjustment. At this rate, this expansion will be out of public beta a year from now. There's a good number of great things in this expansion that's just completely overshadowed by the low tier of QA, and even the attempts address the QA issues are progressing at an astoundingly slow pace, all while announcing they're starting work on a new expansion... Idk anet, your priorities don't seem to be aligned with the community's expectations 3 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem in this case is that I didn't screen grab it, to exactly describe which dialogue option to choose, etc. It's not like you can repeat that process once you have unlocked it. I might edit/update the wiki page once I run through EoD with my next EoD-only account this or next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You still get Spirit Shards if you are not maxed on Mastery, so you aren't exactly locked on XP. 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's more like they want to sligthy (strong emphasis on "slightly" here) even out the cost of research notes. What was it before the nerf from those potions? ~40-45 copper per note? Now it's 80-92 copper/note. Still not exactly bad or even close to approaching "we don't want you to have that currency". For the sake of making a comparison here, more common -from what I've been able to see- food options provide notes at the cost of ~2 silver per note. Despite the nerf, the potions are still a strong (THE strongest, actually) option to get that currency. Overally there's no reason to panic about that change.

Sure, except the springer locks completion of the content and the turtle doesn't, which makes it the equivalent of another toy. Seems like there's a significant difference between the two. 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That means you need the Siege Turtle with the Improved Jump Jets mastery for map completion. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The conclusion you came up with in your post is not even close to adequete to the change they've made. Why? Already explained above.
